ISIS leader al-Baghdadi blew himself up when US Delta Force troops arrived to capture him

BREAKING: ISIS terror group leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is believed to have been eliminated in a raid conducted by US Delta Forces in northwest Syria. The final confirmation is pending while DNA and biometric testing are conducted.

According to reports, the terror group leader al-Baghdadi blew himself and two wives up with a suicide vest when US special operations troops arrived to capture him.
The mission was carried out around midnight in Syria after the US received actionable intelligence regarding Baghdadi in recent days.

The reports surfaced soon after President Trump posted a tweet saying something “very big has just happened!” and the White House said it would make a “major statement” on Sunday at 9 a.m.
Al-Baghdadi has been in hiding for the last five years. In April, released a new audio recording calling on its Muslim terrorists to carry out more terror attacks in order to release jailed ISIS terrorists and jihadist women held in camps.

 

In a video posted by the terror group along with the audio recording, al-Baghdad is seen sitting with a suicide vest by his side.

Al-Baghdadi has been declared dead on several occasions in the past.
Baghdadi, who was born in Iraq, became a key figure in the al-Qaeda in Iraq terror group. In 2013, ISI declared its absorption with an al-Qaeda-backed terror group in Syria and Baghdadi said that his group will now be known as Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS).
